The jacket went on to be adopted by a number of subcultures including the Mod, Punk and Ska scene’s whilst also being worn for high profile sports events across the globe.
The jacket itself remains pretty much identical to the original design and is still manufactured in Manchester. Constructed from a water-repellent fabric it features a stand up collar, umbrella vent to the back and iconic Fraser-Tartan lining. The G9 is famed for its functionality, simple style and complete versatility, treading the line between formal and causal perfectly.
